No Need To Compare With Priyanka, Says Deepika

Mumbai: Actress Deepika Padukone, who is often compared with actress Priyanka Chopra, feels there is no need to compare the two as both are trying to achieve “very different things” for themselves.

Deepika, who returned on Friday after promoting her Hollywood debut film “xXx: Return of Xander Cage”, said: “I don’t think there is any need for comparisons. We both are in very different worlds and are trying to achieve very different things for ourselves.”
